Ahaha, I like TSL. But am not sure if Hyun is ready yet, think the super-deep SlayerS has the best chance. So many potential snipers and aces!

This article reminded me of one of those Powerthirst videos.

TSL did pretty well in the last GSTL, maybe they can pull off another decent showing. But I will be rooting for Slayers though...

Isn't it The SCV Life (TSL) not The Life of an SCV (TLS) ..


I think his making a pun on their team name, saying their low wages etc makes them live and breathe like an scv

I can't wait for this protoss player to be announced. Isn't there huge speculation most BW players are going to go to TSL?

I really hope TSL does well, they've been through very hard times.

As long as Startale does better of course.

"But he's an elephant, and he's in the room" won the article, in my opinion ^^

Anyway, I've been watching TSL for a while now, and I think people are underestimating them. They're led by a superb coach and have an all around strong (well, we don't know about Xxxxxx yet, do we?) roster. Any Zerg that practiced with Jaedong is a Zerg to watch out for, in my opinion, and Polt does have a GSL trophy.
We shall see.

Its someone, but I am told he isn't quite ready yet to be a competitive player.

what is that supposed to mean, still playing bw? or foreigner or something...not many ppl aren't quite ready for it once given the opportunity (unless you meant skillwise)

My money is on a retired BW player or one of the leftovers from the disbanding of the 3 BW teams. A high-level amateur-turned-pro may also be a possibility.

Ugh. The plot thickens. FXO Boss knows so much, yet only teases us once again.

The shine and polish of the post does not cover up the fact that you are, in a way, making it painfully obvious how unlikely the success of TSL in the team league truly is. I'd say good cases can be made for the triumph of Slayers, oGs, MVP, NSHoSeo, and particularly the recently on fire FXO. TSL is a long shot by a big margin, and your choice of evidence that supports the conclusion is quite lacking. DRG will all-kill TSL, mark my words. See what I did there?

So it's some decent bw guy. If it was some talented unknown/amateur nobody would bet on him becoming a strong player.
you're wrong

Spending any amount of time on TeamLiquid should tell you I don't hide my overt TSL fanboyism. This post is purely TSL fanboyism and hype for GSTL. Don't waste your time raining on my parade, because I'll keep going through the storm.

Haha, fair enough good sir, I'm only worried that the flippant tone of the post only makes TSL seem even less defnsible as a strong team. Time will tell :D

I'm sorry but Tsl's players aren't quite the same caliber as the players in several other teams. With that said, i don't think so

oGs, IM, Slayers are probably a bit more favored i would think.


If you think Polt or alive aren't top calibre players your very mistaken.

Really you should have watch Polts Code A matches last season his micro is probably some of the best in sc2
